I created posters that visually and verbally articulated how four different instructional design models function in the process of designing instruction al materials. I utilized Pikochart using simple monochromatic colors and created original icons and images. The target audience for these images are high school to college age students. They are more attracted to images that are simple and clean whereas an elementary school students would want more colors and a busier image.


For the ADDIE and SAM Models I chose red and white and the image of a brain. As educators our goal is to feed the brain with knowledge and I thought it would be a fitting image. I also used icons for each of the phases. Icons are easily understood and remembered more than text. Hopefully, the audience would remember what they read and correspond the images with the information after they read it. I created the icons using Photoshop.


My Gradual Release Model and the Rapid Prototyping Model utilized the same framework the ADDIE and SAM models, however, I changed the colors and imagery. I was able to utilize a fire image but inverted it to blue instead of using the red of fire. Blue is much more soothing to the eye.
